Panels left Memphis, still waiting for the bill. Arrive at my place in a couple more days.

This may be a dumb question, but will FedEx deliver and then bill you the custom duties/fees? Or is delivery contingent on having that already paid? 

[94touring]

It says it needs to be paid before delivery but they haven't sent me a bill yet and it's being delivered today 

[94touring]

Well it was delivered and I've yet to see a bill.

Beats the hell out of the apparent UPS method of demanding you pay a ransom of a made-up amount to receive your package, then try to fight them to explain or justify the amount. After at least a 3 month wait!

I'll keep an eye out for something after the fact, but yeah I prefer the non ransom method of delivery too.

Maybe they've collected so much tariffs they don't need any more?
